AGAWAM, MA (WFSB) - For thousands, summer in New England means taking a trip to an amusement park, but this year, some locals on the Massachusetts border say the traffic heading to Six Flags has been the worst in years.
Weâre seeing the perfect storm build up. We havenât had too many sunny weekends this months.
Thereâs also the pent up demand in general after the pandemic, so thatâs been the recipe for the huge turnouts at the park and the backups on 159.
On a hazy Monday afternoon, the traffic in and out of Six Flags New England in Agawam, Massachusetts isnât that bad, but locals say this past weekend brought bumper-to-bumper, shoulder-to-shoulder traffic on the road and in the park.
